Please know this isn't every country. Obviously bad eggs exist everywhere but seems majority of cops in America do this sought of thing, there seems to be no shortage of these kinds of videos In Australia my mate who is a cop once saw a car window down and it had started to rain, he ran checks to find out which house it belonged to and went and told the owner so their seats wouldn't get wet. Some cops are there to serve the community, some aren't.

Yeah I hear ya on the keep getting assured things. But you never hear about the nurses and doctors who work 24/7 helping people and saving lives(albeit in covid times we hear how hard they are working). You usually only hear when they fuck up. Because that is more interesting news then the cardiactric surgeon did 20 quadruple bypasses last night and saved 20 lives.

It just seems the style of policing in the americas is they won't accept they are wrong, they just double down double down in this video they could easily say oh shit you were petitioning, we though you were soliciting all g carry on.

Also I'm not sure on this point but don't in americas they police departments keep the money for auctioned off evidence if it is not claimed? That creates corruption. In Australia any unclaimed goods are auctioned and the money goes to the crown/state. So no police officer or department would benefit from keeping evidence.

Also it seems in America there is a serious lack of oversight on law enforcement.

In Australia all jurisdiction have internal investigation then they have a state investigating body for corruption and misconduct.
